Paula's Choice CLEAR Anti-Redness Exfoliating Solution — 2% Salicylic Acid, Fragrance-Free

Targeted exfoliation with a gentle touch

Paula's Choice CLEAR Anti-Redness Exfoliating Solution blends a water-light, fragrance-free formula with 2% salicylic acid. This leave-on liquid supports a clear-looking complexion by helping to clear clogged pores, reduce the buildup that can lead to breakouts, and fade red marks left by past blemishes. It does not rely on aggressive scrubbing, instead delivering a smooth, comfortable experience that fits into daily routines.

What makes it different

• 2% salicylic acid for targeted exfoliation to clear pores and refine surface texture without harsh scrubbing.
• Fragrance-free and water-light texture that suits redness-prone and sensitive complexions.
• Hydration plus smoothing action supports moisture while gently removing dead cells for a more even look.

How it fits into a full routine

For best results, pair this exfoliant with Paula’s Choice CLEAR products: Pore Normalizing Cleanser, Daily Skin Clearing Treatment, and Ultra-Light Daily Hydrating Fluid SPF 30+. The complete system covers cleansing, treatment, and protection across the day.

Usage tips and real-life scenarios

• Use after cleansing, as a leave-on step in the evening or morning with sunscreen afterward.
• If you’re new to BHAs, start with 2–3 times per week and gradually increase as tolerated.

What you may notice over time includes a smoother texture, a more even-looking skin tone, and a reduction in the appearance of pores. The fragrance-free formula minimizes irritants, making it a versatile choice for those with sensitive or easily irritated skin. Always patch-test new products to confirm tolerance.

With a thoughtful, science-backed approach, Paula’s Choice CLEAR offers options that align with varied skincare needs, aiming to support a routine that feels calm and clear rather than rushed or forced.
